1# Skill: Object Locator for ALFWorld
2 
3## When to Use
4Trigger this skill when:
51. Your goal requires a specific object (e.g., `knife`, `cellphone`, `apple`)
62. The object is not in your inventory
73. The current observation does not explicitly state the object's location

9## Core Workflow
10 
11### 1. Parse the Environment
12Extract all visible receptacles from the observation text. Typical ALFWorld receptacles include:
13- **Surfaces**: countertop, desk, dresser, bed, shelf, sidetable, coffeetable, diningtable
14- **Containers**: drawer, cabinet, safe, fridge, microwave, garbagecan
15- **Appliances**: sinkbasin, bathtub, stoveburner, toaster
16 
17### 2. Rank by Likelihood
18Use common-sense reasoning to prioritize where the target object is most likely found:
19 
20| Object Type | High-Probability Receptacles |
21|-------------|------------------------------|
22| Kitchen items (knife, spatula, pan) | countertop, drawer, diningtable, stoveburner |
23| Food (apple, potato, tomato, bread) | fridge, countertop, diningtable, microwave |
24| Bathroom items (sponge, cloth, soap) | sinkbasin, bathtub, cart, shelf |
25| Electronics (cellphone, laptop, remote) | desk, sidetable, dresser, bed, coffeetable |
26| Stationery (pen, pencil, book) | desk, shelf, drawer, sidetable |
27| Lighting (candle, desklamp) | sidetable, shelf, desk, dresser |

29### 3. Navigate and Search
30For each candidate receptacle (in priority order):
311. `go to {receptacle}`
322. Read the observation — does it mention the target object?
